How to help the victims of Haiti's earthquake:

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Haiti and their families around the world. Please help out in any way you can and if you find a good organization or business not listed here that is directly helping with the relief efforts... please share the info with the rest of us! :)

Red Cross Haiti Relief and Development Fund

Doctors without Borders- Building emergency triage centers and medical services in Haiti

http://doctorswithoutborders.org/

Partners in Health - Provides international emergency medical services and personnel.

Or bring donations to your area Whole Foods Market (check with the store first):

The Salvation Army has numerous locations in communities around the world that can accept cash or other donations:

Please use your common sense and take a few minutes to do some research so that your help can get to where it's needed.  It's a sad but true fact of life that ne'er-do-wells will crawl out from under their rocks in times of need to take advantage of the generosity of good folks.  I listed the direct links to some well-known and reputable charities; however, I have already seen some shady links online in Google ads, Facebook, and on other websites.  Check the URLs (web addresses) first!!

Thank you Feltizens and God bless!

2010!

We survived another decade.  That is all.  Return to your hangovers, citizens.  There is nothing to see here.  Except an epic "Dick Van Dyke Show" marathon to help you forget the disastrous aughts (and those strange sparkly blue drinks from NYE...).  Enjoy!  We'll go back to exploiting our mad Fuzzi-making skills on Monday.
